I thought we were going to use the hexagon glass like we did in our last home but this is such a great subtle change and upgrade in style! We absolutely love them. They are sturdy and do NOT look cheap. I was worried with the surface area of an emerald cut- since on a few other samples I ordered I could see glue, or the clarity of the glass was not great. The glass on this knob is clear and the facets give it just the right amount of shine without too much bling!
